I made some research about the topic both in the forum and Google Search Engine but I didn't see any related topic as well but if anyone noticed that this topic has been discussed here before then call my attention. But I know that it is at other forum.
Yes let go back to the course of discussion. This has been an argument for group of people across the globe and many have been saying that money is the only thing that making the the world to be united but in my own POV football is also uniting the world. I saw a social media post that, two countries were fighting and a football match was fixed for the two countries to play as regional competition and a popular footballer from one of the country asked his country to go and play the match in the other country and asked the other country soldiers to drop their weapons and they did and the match was played and after the match the war between the two countries also ended. So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
-
why compare money to football? football is not popular in some countries.
nothing unites the world now, even the Ukraine-Russia war people are siding with Russia because people just don't trust the government anymore after all the times they have been telling us since time.
but have Elon and Zuckerberg inside the octagon, people may just stop what they are doing and watch. we wanna see people like them fight. ;D

Money will always bring the world together due to international business relationship. But it is sad to see that even doing business does not mean that if these countries have some sentimental issues that they would tolerate one another. Football is getting more popular as we are seeing some countries that don't have interest in football then, are recently showing interest. Football brings people from different countries together but does not mean that it unites them. We can see how racism is still in football, last year it happened to Vini
-
Hmm interesting, well from my own take, I think football is big but not every country plays football or enjoys football but I think if we are to evaluate the ratio the bigger portion will be given to the football being the more uniting figure and I say this with the example that transpired in my own country.
Just recently Nigerian were all united as one and forget about all the hardship that the country posses to them base on the expectations and brilliant performance of the super eagles that led them to the finals and believe me that day of the finals was a really something as Nigerian were all over were in one spirit but unfortunately we still lost the trophy.
-
It is money. Nothing unites a country other than money because every country needs a collaborative business idea to boost its economy to growth and football can't offer that. What football can offer is happiness moments for both countries at that point and after that, the unity ends and there won't be any other further unification of those countries. But as for those countries who share a monetary exchange of goods and services, their relationship continues and that keeps unifying them economically.
-
Having a common interest in something, be it football or money, does not mean the same as being united (which is an overrated term by the way).
People don't unite just for the sake of it, they do it to achieve something. They unite to fight for something or against something.
Football can unite people in some cases, i.e. fans of rival clubs unite to support their national team etc, but it also divides people on the fans of different teams. None of that is inherently good or bad.

The war didn't magically end because 2 countries played soccer. There was probably a lot of politics involved that had more to do with things outside of football IMO.
Neither unite the world. Money usually separates people and football is just entertainment.

Yes, here is a reality I have noticed where the war between Russia and Ukraine is going on but the only football match I have seen is with these two teams facing each other in a friendly atmosphere on the same field. Sports definitely creates a bond between two different nations or between two different countries by creating a harmonious environment. In that case, I will not give as much importance to money as football or sports. Especially between Pakistan and India, there is always a bilateral conflict within the two countries, although these two teams are opposite each other on the field of play, but only for cricket, these two teams face each other by maintaining a cordial atmosphere between each other. However, it creates a bond between the two countries, be it football cricket or any other sports competition in the world.

I don't really know about the hustle and bustle of football, but where I am, football is very trendy in terms of sports, and other sports are not as famous as football.
Maybe also in my place football can unite together into one goal.
Money is definitely the first choice for everyone and I am also one of them who needs money every day.
I work every day to earn money, everyone works to earn money, playing football is also to earn money.
I would really agree if football and money are what unite the main goal for everyone, money for everyone and football for all football lovers.
-
It's the common interest that unites countries in the form alliances. In your example, both countries neither wanted to give up but also recognized the losses they suffered as a result of the war. The football game just provided an opportunity. If one country doesn't have an interest in settling, the war would have continued.
These alliances aren't ironclad though. If their national interests do not align, expect these countries to part ways.

So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
To a certain extent, sports can play a vital role in uniting people but generally as far as I know observing human nature at play in geopolitics people go to war because of deep historical differences and those differences won't easily be healed by bringing them together and have then play football. I am sorry to pour some cold water on this idea but sports and even money will not be the lasting solutions to big and small conflicts around the world. Like in the war right now between Gaza and Israel, their differences go back to decades of conflicts and there are no easy solutions for them...and even if one will be torched and lose the war the battle will continue on for generations to come until one of them will be totally obliterated and that is why war is a question of strength though the battle can be a little bit different. Israel is winning the war but losing the battle in the eyes of the world. Now, it would have been nice if we can just have them play football and they forget everything that transpired in the past...how I wish it would be so easy at that. But I admire your desire for peace, prosperity and freedom though sadly in today's world those may not be easy to find as long as humanity is conflicted within. And not even Bitcoin and cryptocurrency for that matter can be able to stop war and create peace for all to enjoy.
-
what unites countries with other countries is money where business is carried out for the betterment of both parties, football is just a game and even a competition for entertainment, but if there is something like you said it could be made into history if one football match can make a country make peace from a war
-
Football is the most popular sport in the world and if you want to say football unites the world that's fine. We can see during the World Cup for example, all eyes are on the biggest football party.
But I don't understand why the comparison and the question of which unites the world more, football or money. In fact now money is one of the sources of problems, one of the things that makes some countries go to war is because of money.
I don't think we can compare what unites the world more, football and money.
-
but have Elon and Zuckerberg inside the octagon, people may just stop what they are doing and watch. we wanna see people like them fight. ;D
I personally like this idea that instead of comapring football and money why not these billionairs? That's a lot more fun just like what TraxNYC and Nico Leonard did I really enjoyed that match given that these billionaires were not into the sports of boxing as you can see with how they do it in the ring. 😅
-
Both are tools that enhances countries and puts countries together whether war or any conflict between inter state and between intra community what unites them is money and football. But sometimes money also easily causes conflicts between two country it could be crud oil or natural resource that easily breaks and tor countries/state/ and community apart.
-
All over the world the sharing formula is always inequality and that has been causing problems the whole world. And that is also the highest cause of the poverty in the world because the politicians and leaders refuse to share the national wealth, and both the national resources equal with the citizens but instead they they use them to inrich themselves and forgetting the poor to be more poorer. And the poor are always angry but they are all laughing and smiling when they are all gathered together to watch sports.
-
On my understanding I can fully said that sports are what gives people fun and its what makes people feel better, just like we know when we are at a film hall watching football match we also fell happy even when our team are losing we communicate with our fellow team members in the hall and that's what makes sports interesting.
But when it comes to money, money is what people need to take care of them selfs and their responsibilities.
And again, money can never unite a country because some people can have money and still do evil things because they are not contented.
-
Well, there are many things that unite the world, there is the international station that is in space. Another is the soaps in the 90s, a couple of countries at war came to a truce to see the soaps, it is true, it happened.
As for the comparison with money, it seems a little obvious to me, I mean, it is a common interest.
Football has many times achieved confrontations on the playing field in a peaceful way.
-
I think money and football are not enough to unite a nation together. Just as yahoo62278 had said, money separates people and football is just for entertainment purposes. Football is just for fun and does not last long for the time being and in some cases, causes little fracas. For instance, I could remember year's back during one of the competition years back when an African country won their counterparts in the same continental cup. After that match, the citizens of the other country that lost the match began to attack the country men of their winner in their own country and this was televised and even in this just concluded AFCON similar thing repeated itself where by players were threatened to not step into their country or they should leave if they are there already.
Money on the other hand is most times a tussle for power. Nations rising against nations as a result for their interest in the natural resources of the other nations either to drag or to sanction them against trading or exploring what they have for financial gains.
I think love is the uniting factor to sustain relationship amongst nations and individuals all over the world.

Why not mention the countries?
If you're thinking of the Biafra war then Pele didn't stop a thing, the war went on for a year after the match.
https://www.goal.com/en/news/did-pele-and-santos-really-stop-a-war-in-nigeria-in-1969/yhomuw4g6fyr1fdvda0pu58b3
According to Pele's team-mates Gilmar and Coutinho, the ceasefire barely lasted for the duration of the game; as the side's plane took off, they could hear from inside the craft the sound of gunshots that marked the resumption of conflict.
If you think of the Christmas truce from ww1 that wasn't about football it was about Christmas and again didn't last long.
Also, football was itself a reason for war
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_War
Let's not even mention hooliganism, one football match and whole Europe goes full medieval again.
If you want a thing that unites people it's music, google Enter Sandman and Moscow.

So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
Obviously, football unites the world. Money doesn`t unite people. Experiences have shown that some friends went apart because of money. The feeling of Mr. A having money and Mr. B not having is capable of creating disparity between people unlike football where people don`t attach social class when they watch the game. Football is a universal language that transcends linguistic and cultural barriers. The passion for football is shared by millions of people worldwide, creating a common ground for interaction and love. Fans can develop a sense of camaraderie with fellow supporters, regardless of their nationality or background.
This is true when you consider events like the FIFA World Cup which bring together nations from around the globe to compete on the same stage. These tournaments foster a sense of unity and sportsmanship among countries that may have political or social differences like the instance you gave.

You make sense for this comment. One karma for you. Many people are saying money is the only thing that can unite the world because money can buy everything and make people happy while football is just a feeling which is only to entertain. And as you said money has created and caused a lot of enemies in the world but football has brought people together for excitement and making people to forget their sorrow.

So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
The thing with money is, it brings power. And when you test power, you crave four more. The hunger for power creates conflicts between people and the more powerful they get the more conflict they brings. Money could never be a solution to unite the whole world. If that was the case, there will be no conflict over the world and there would be no poor people suffering. It's all about money and power which brings difficulties and conflicts.
I won't say that I am an avid fan of football ( I think you were referring to soccer). But when people enjoy something and share a mutual feelings toward that, I think that could easily unite people. Also I don't want to be biased about anything. Having different choices amongst players could also create conflicts amongst people. So it's not the perfect solution either. But it is what it is. If you take it as something good it becomes something good.

If people weren't so greedy the world would be better off. That's not going to happen though. Always going to be poor people suffering as well because in general people are just out for themselves. I see beggars on the street and want to help now and then, but my issue is so many liars are beggars as well. By that I mean there are groups that dress up dirty and go to street corners begging all day, then get picked up and go party all night from the money they begged for. They're not really poor, just lazy.
Sports bring people together more than money, but both usually cause drama. Someone wants to win a bet, someone wants what the other has, blah blah ya know.

That is why I said money sometimes is worth causes conflicts among countries and states let say for example as you said about politician and when they seems not to look over the country and her citizens it could cause and conflict resolution were the citizens would start fighting for their right by so doing it has cause serious war and division within the country. But most times football and any form of entertainments is what brought countries and nations together.

This thread is getting intense because from the different comments from the beginning, everyone was given their POV and from their experienced.

Yahoo my man, how do you say about these statements. The way I look at it you were contradicting the two because at first you said neither the two but now you have chosen one. Can you put more highlights on the part you have chosen?

I don't feel it contradicts anywhere. Sports brings people together, friends who are at one another's house for say a Superbowl party or hanging out having a few beers and enjoying a game, but that's not uniting the world. Not even close!!! So it brings people together but not the world.
-
Football is a sport that unites everyone in the world because in my environment Football is a sport that is very popular with people.
Money can also unite everyone and everyone needs money, but sometimes money makes people arrogant and hostile, such as when it comes to family inheritance.
Football gives me goodness because I can sweat, joke with campus friends and compete with my own skills in handling the ball.
Money is very sensitive, especially many of my college friends who gamble and sometimes they borrow money from me to gamble but I don't give them loans.Because if I lend money to gamble to my friend and my friend doesn't pay it back because he lost the gambling then he and I will definitely be enemies.

Well, I don't think of people that way. I am not very religious, but I try to follow as much as possible. In my religion, it is said that when a person comes to you for a need, they should never leave empty-handed. It is also said that, when you leave someone empty-handed, that day can come to you as well. Maybe not today, not to you, but to your future generation. The role could be reversed.
So I try to do all the good I can. Sorry for bringing up religion here but I follow this and I think it is the best. Whether someone is in need or they are just impersonating or faking it, I am giving it to them so that I can feel that I have done something good. And I think I will get something as a reward for that from god.
I will do my part and god will do his part to reward me. If someone is lying, they will also get their punishment from god as well. If I stop helping people just because some dude decides to scam me, then I will not be able to help someone when they are really in need of help.
Sorry for the long reply but that's just how I feel.
And lastly, everything could be used for good or bad depending on people using it. but as you said, people will always be greedy and they will search for their advantage. And they will use it to create conflicts.

can turn into this:
(https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/02/17/Yn1Gj.jpeg)
I wonder how was football uniting those:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Said_Stadium_riot
On 1 February 2012, a massive riot occurred at Port Said Stadium in Port Said, Egypt, following an Egyptian Premier League football match between Al Masry and Al Ahly. Seventy-four people were killed and more than 500 injured after thousands of Al Masry fans stormed the stadium stands and the pitch following a 3–1 victory by their club and violently attacked Ahly fans, using clubs, stones, machetes, knives, bottles, and fireworks, trapping them inside the Al Ahly partition of the stadium.
Death(s) 72 Al-Ahly fans, 1 Al-Masry fan, 1 police officer
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanjuruhan_Stadium_disaster
On 1 October 2022, a fatal human crush occurred following an association football match at Kanjuruhan Stadium in Malang Regency, East Java, Indonesia.[4] Following a loss by home side Arema to rivals Persebaya Surabaya, around 3,000 Arema supporters invaded the pitch.[5][6] Police said the rioting supporters attacked the players and the team officials. Deaths 135
I don't feel it contradicts anywhere. Sports brings people together, friends who are at one another's house for say a Superbowl party or hanging out having a few beers and enjoying a game, but that's not uniting the world. Not even close!!! So it brings people together but not the world.
I've always been curious, how comes that hooliganism is so low in the US compared to EU?
I've seen NFL or NBA fans being just as hardcore when defending their teams but not once I've ever seen in stadium in the US the crowd going , like I said, fully medieval as I've seen it numerous times live here as I've been caught in one or two incidents myself.

conflict is inevitable, in the year 2003, a communities played football in my community and there was a serious conflict within the match. And after that day they reconciled. Football conflict or war or fight has not lead to serious enmity. But money can divide people forever. So Stompix, please can you tell us what can unit the world together?
-

Yes let go back to the course of discussion. This has been an argument for group of people across the globe and many have been saying that money is the only thing that making the the world to be united but in my own POV football is also uniting the world.
In my opinion, on the contrary, money can actually make the world chaotic and competitive. Because every country wants to become the first and richest and most powerful in this world. And this is not actually uniting, but actually competing. At least, even though they collaborate in various fields, this collaboration certainly contains various interests, which in the end are about money and power.
As for football, it will unite the world, but there are various gaps. because there are many clubs that are each individual's favorite. So it's still limited to which club you used to be with. Even if we look at how each football fan comments, it's really sad, because they each say harsh things about their rival clubs or players. So I'm also confused about whether this is uniting or actually making the world hotter. ha ha ha
-
Football conflict or war or fight has not lead to serious enmity. But money can divide people forever.
Oh lol, no, it has!
Some really don't really get the difference between fans in the US, Asia for example and Europe!!!
It wasn't uncommon to have full neighborhood fights because of the teams, we even turned fans into mercenayy like gangs, read about the so called "ultras" or "hooligan firms"
And money can bring people together also.
Look at Bitcoin, everyone is having fun cause they get rich!
So Stompix, please can you tell us what can unit the world together?
Already told you, if we exclude rap rivalry, music!
-
I think nothing unites the world more than football, football brings happiness and joy. During football people of different race, roots and origin play in the same team with love and unity, they become friends and even visits their individual countries during holidays.
-
So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
I would say you should not just restrict it to football but say sports in general have a general feeling of inspiring unity among a group of people, even if there was conflict between them. From the two options, I will pick sports ahead of money because you will be shocked that there are people in the world who do not pay so much importance to money and are usually just content with their way of life and culture than people in some other sides of the world.
-
If the story you shared about football match ending the war between two countries, that means is football that unites the world more than money. Money wasn't used to unite the world because it can't be used as interchange competition that will make countries to compete with one another in a given sports.
A country can't compete with its fellow country as country that has money more than. But for football, we can have country come together to challenge one another in that aspect and the whole country citizens will be happy about that
-
Football unites the world together than money. Football is a sporting event, that brings peoples thought and thinking together. Sporting events like the World Cup, helps to establish common relationships with other countries. It helps people of different backgrounds to come together and support team they cherish.Money is just there. People have their different currencies, especially those with high value feel more superior to those whose money is small in value. So there is no unity in money regulations.

Football isn't just entertainment, during the last world Cup in Qatar a lot of people travelled allnover the world to Qatar, they made friends and can even forge marriage. Football is beyond entertainment
-
Football can unite, and it can unite from all walks of life. With football we can be united because we support the same team, or even when it is a national team, then football will be the medicine for the chaos in a country.
If I am not mistaken, it happened during the civil war, yes Drogba once stopped it when he managed to bring the national team to compete in the World Cup. This is enough proof for me that football can indeed unite.
-

And as you said money has created and caused a lot of enemies in the world but football has brought people together for excitement and making people to forget their sorrow.
How does having money and the ability to afford all of life's pleasures contribute to global unity? Money can only make the owner happy, and in some cases, they are not happy at all, regardless of how much money they have. I have never seen money used to resolve international conflicts. How will this be done? Share money to the conflicting parties or how?
The majority of people downplay the importance of sports. People learn a lot, meet new people, and ultimately feel content during sports festivals. If money is a powerful tool for uniting people, there should be a money festival where people can gather, but since there is none, it is clear that money is not a unifying factor. It serves no purpose other than exchange.

I believe that football can unite the world. It transcends borders, languages and cultures, bringing people together through shared passion and excitement. To be honest, I have never heard of this story before but it wouldn't surprise me if it actually happened. Because football creates bonds and sometimes unites views. By the way, I will do my research on what happened between those countries because your story has made me curious.
-
Both are tools that enhances countries and puts countries together whether war or any conflict between inter state and between intra community what unites them is money and football.

Money doesn't unite the world, you can talk about trade not money. Football clearly unites the world, the fact that you have people who belong to different race and country in one football team is enough unity l, it brings about peaceful coexistence
-
So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
Our country is part of this world but football is not popular here in our country and we all use money in our everyday lives, so I will have to pick money as the one that unites the world because every country, whatever the state they are or their location, has a currency of their own that they can call money and that's what unite the world.

So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.

Between money and football I can say that it's football that Unites the world the most because almost all the crisis in the world is linked to money when it comes to football there is no race, colour and even religion but money is what has caused more problems in the world because there are people who are ready to kill, betray and do what ever that is possible wether good or evil but football is a uniting factor that brings people together in the world because it's only football that you will see different people speaking the same language irrespective of where they come from

Its the love of money that causes problem in the world but if you look at it positively, money is both trust and provider; its our bridge for service and payment, This is one thing that every
nation must have for the country to function properly.
Money is a medium of exchange with a recognized value that was adopted to make it easier for people to trade products and services with one another.
The History Of Money (https://www.investopedia.com/articles/07/roots_of_money.asp#:~:text=Money%20allows%20people%20to%20trade,with%20which%20payment%20is%20accepted.)
There are many countries where football is not popular, but we cannot find one cashless country, so money is the one thing that unites us all and has one thing in common.
But we can say that both can unite us all.

Both are tools that enhances countries and puts countries together whether war or any conflict between inter state and between intra community what unites them is money and football. But sometimes money also easily causes conflicts between two country it could be crud oil or natural resource that easily breaks and tor countries/state/ and community apart.
Money doesn't unite the world, you can talk about trade not money. Football clearly unites the world, the fact that you have people who belong to different race and country in one football team is enough unity l, it brings about peaceful coexistence
Football is surely a good way to unite countries but doesn't mean that other things can't unite them, this unity might comes in forms of business or sharing some common things. Football is the major way to unite them, while money may either cause dispute depends on their understanding and how they handle everything amicably.

it depends on the angle you look at it from i can always say that football also divides because depending on which football team you support you can go against other fans of the sport who support another team that you do not like
is there anything that collectively unites everyone with no exceptions? even money does not do that

I have never read any information about this kind of match, and will this only exist in fiction? Or is it really happening?
Imagining a football match can be one of the solutions to peace, I am sure that it is very unlikely to happen in the real world... we see several countries in the Middle East today, peace will definitely not be achieved with just one football match... it is really difficult and illogical...
If the second option is money that unites us, that is also not quite right... the main problem is that we are hostile to each other when looking for money, some are even willing to kill business opponents just for money... isn't that idealistic thinking very difficult to do nowadays?
On the other hand, if many countries benefit from money, that makes a little sense too, although it is unlikely to happen because we know that countries also compete with each other.

Unity doesn't only comes ones through footballing but as they keep playing among each others you would see them getting united gradually. We have seen some countries that shares some things in common but yet are still not in unity which is very wrong, unity they said comes gradually and when the both countries have decided for unity then there would be unity.
-
For me, that is not the concept, the only thing that is uniting football and money is a business that has always existed, corruption is something that will always occur, but on a personal level I think that all this comes down to someone, the corruption in FIFA and that is demonstrated in official matches will not disappear, even with VAR the referees steal, the matches that are without VAR the theft is worse, money and football only unite those who have interests higher up, the players and the clubs always fight to be the best, but nothing can be done against corruption, every time in every match I always see corruption.

Both football and money unites the world. However, I will say football unites the world more than money because some countries don't do business with some other countries due to power power tossle. But football does not care about that because it's a sport that majority of countries partake in to earn some respect for the country.

Football as we all know is a unifying factor compared to money but both are special in their unique ways that human somehow needs them to keep life going. However, football has more uniting features than money, it cuts across religions, tribes, cultures, etc I can remember a certain time when I went to the northern part of my country which was 2018 when Russia hosted the World Cup, there was this place we went to watch our match then. I could see the unity irrespective of culture and religion when we scored, you could see the jubilation amongst the viewers without minding their religion they shook hands and hugged while jumping and celebrating a goal scored and I believe this act of money can not do. If it were to be money, there would be arguments of who would take the highest amount and who is eligible to be amongst the people who would share the money but in football it is not so.
Football is an emblem of unity and oneness.
-
Football and money are both necessary for different purposes, but football can unite the whole world, which money cannot. If you have money, you may be able to do many things, but you cannot unite all the nations of the world, which is possible through football. There is a power in sports that money does not have, but money is needed, and football is also needed.

Businesse are not certain because some could be language differences which are seen as a barrier between country and those countries which speaks common languages are that much united than other countries that doesn't speak same languages. Yes, they may involved in business but there could be trust issues, so football is likely the best to unite people or nations.

Previously I have said that football can be more unifying and to be honest I don't see that in money.
For example, now developed countries are still at economic war and if we talk about the economy, then we will not be separated from money. So in my opinion, rather than uniting, maybe money can be more divisive.
-
For me, money and football both bring people together, but they don’t truly unite the world. Money controls business and trade, but it also creates rich and poor people, which leads to division. Football brings people together for a moment, but after the game, everyone goes back to their own problems.

You can't compare money with football because football is one uniting force that brings people together for genuinely as football knows no race, colour and religion when the game of football is being played that is when you will see that even two enemies supporting the same team will be united but money is one thing that has caused alot of problem in society because any where money is mentioned there will be betrayal
-
We have tons of countries where football is not that predominant so they are doomed? Huh...
Nothing unite the world, there's always leaders and countries who opposes each other, for now Russia against US but also China is being a silent partner. Don't you think these countries doesn't have money?

Well but we don't have to see it like that either, there's something I didn't like was that they banned Russia from world football, football players are not to blame for what their rulers do, just like their people, China has its team and they play very well, I think that at a sporting level they should unite the world, I've made many friends playing football, and they are people that when we saw each other we were mad at each other, but in some way this protection unites, after the game, whoever wins, the greatest probability of becoming friends is very high, so that can be taken to other levels, of course it can, we have to be more positive.

It is essential to note that competition and differences of interest among the leading states have always been characteristics of the world’s political landscape. It is important to note that the power of the countries may not be similar in most fields, but this does not mean that they do not also play a crucial role. Every nation has it’s own agenda as far as preserving economic, political and military relations are concerned. International relations contain aspects of cooperation and conflict due to self interest regardless of the nature or cause of the interest. Some situations are bilateral in the event that some nations go warlike and aggressive against each other while some other nations take a more tactical and concealed position. According to the given context, people of the world have never had a united vision of the world but there has always been some power distribution in the world which is shifting from one region to the other.

Yes , it is like that , However we can make Comparisons that are very analogous with what happens in the world , some people see football as if it were wars between countries, they want to know which is the best Country, that's how they see it, and what potential they have, that's how sometimes some people see Football.
What I didn't like about the Qatar World Cup were the famous bans, even though I didn't think it was good that they banned the Russian team , the Athletes and the people are not to blame for what the politicians do.

to be fair there are competitive leagues that have countries as the participators so if your country wins in football against another country, it is nation's pride and in a way allows the citizens of the winning country to boast about how good their country is
good football teams of a country may also indicate the current state of the country no matter how ridiculous that sounds because if an athletic team is appropriately provided for and supported then they could win in international competitions but of course this is only possible if the country has enough money for athleticism

When participating in a football competition, players take a variety of factors into consideration. Whether or not the players approach the game as a war is heavily influenced by the competition, the prize, and the honour that winning can bring to them as a player, the football club, or the country as a whole.
This is normal to me, which is why there are rules in the game to prevent players from going too far and causing damage to other players. In fact, the beauty of the game lies in its rules.
The rules make football entertaining because they try to keep the sport from becoming a war zone and promote sportsmanship, where players, regardless of competition, can recognize the importance of love and passion.

You are absolutely right, although look at something that is happening right now, and this arose from the controversy that Neymar JKr was removed or called up from the Brazilian national team, supposedly because the player had an injury that has not let him play , however some Brazilian media allege that there are too many secrets in the national team, it is said that it is not only because of that but because of Ney's scandals, and that is something that does not suit them to have a Player who has those types of problems within the national team.

Football will always be mysterious in different ways especially for legends who are fond of by different people in the world. Yes, it is clear that the decisions made by the National Team are most likely made after taking into consideration the players’ fitness and other aspects apart from the playing ground. It must also be understood that the public and the media has its fair share of opinions hence the topic is even more contentious. In any case, such decisions always raise a response from any interested parties, be it positive or negative. Finally, it is most crucial for the team as to how they will be able to proceed with the composition that they deem to be the best in relation to completing the sport project.
-
It's not football but another sport is likely to be the way of peace in a region. Putin and Trump allegedly agreed on a ice hockey match between Russia and the USA. I'm not sure if there will be other nation/s to join. This looks like a way for Trump not to unite the world but to facilitate an end to the long conflict.

Yes, it is as you say, in the specific case of Brazil it is different, because this team is not doing very well in the qualifiers, they have many errors, they are not in the first round, they have been criticized a lot, they have to face a Colombia that is playing very well, so all these things have repercussions, in addition to leaving Ney out is something of worldwide impact, I think that contributes to the controversy, this is something that is always going to happen, football in Brazil is like that, of course you are comfortable, the secretaries will always be there present.

Does facilitating a long term conflict among countries not unite the world? It obviously does. The world is a system, and when one component of the system fails, it has an impact on the system's overall function. So it is in the global system. When a region or some countries are in conflict, it affects world peace and brings tension to the global arena.
Even though a Ice Hockey game is organized to unite Russia and USA that still goes a long way to justify the importance of sports for unity in the world system. I have witness enemies turned friends during a sports game.

I made some research about the topic both in the forum and Google Search Engine but I didn't see any related topic as well but if anyone noticed that this topic has been discussed here before then call my attention. But I know that it is at other forum.
Yes let go back to the course of discussion. This has been an argument for group of people across the globe and many have been saying that money is the only thing that making the the world to be united but in my own POV football is also uniting the world. I saw a social media post that, two countries were fighting and a football match was fixed for the two countries to play as regional competition and a popular footballer from one of the country asked his country to go and play the match in the other country and asked the other country soldiers to drop their weapons and they did and the match was played and after the match the war between the two countries also ended. So from your observation which of the two really Unite the World. Football or Money.
Money d not unite, it scatters, imagine brothers killing each other just to get the wealth of the other. This is not the case in football, even enemies comes together to watch a football match especially when there are major competitions like the Champions League, Europa League, World Cup etc. People from all over the world irrespective of their race or ethnic groups gathers together as spectators in the stadium to cheer up their teams.
I remember the last world cup in 2022 where Argentina played against France in the finals of the world cup, I went to a viewing center to watch it, I didn't even mind if the person beside me was a friend or an enemy, I simply stayed and enjoyed every moment of the match even unto the penalty shootout.
-
I will go with football, because money can even cause two brothers to tier parts, but when there is an occasion or even that brings the people together in staying together, that same reason will always keep them together because of the friendliness involved and not money, money has a kind of spirit in which can make people to behave beyond they could reason or understand about life and themselves, but when there are activities life sports that brings them together, they will always have a course to continue in this whether money is involved or not.

Exactly! Football will always take the lead. Money has never united the world and is not an agent of unity. The world does not have a single currency that binds them so how can it unite the world. I have never heard of money festival so money cannot bring the world together.
To understand how powerful football can be then consider the world cup, Champions League and even the Olympics then it becomes clear that football is an agent of unity. It can unite the world and bring tranquility to the international system.

Football will always be first in every sense to make friends and unite, yes, that is the most important thing, but we cannot stop talking about the fact that in football it is a sport in which unfortunately FIFA and the organizations that have it do exist corruption , even with the VAR there is corruption, it is a profitable business, there is a lot of money involved, but I have not yet seen transparency and I think that many in the world also agree with that, and everyone wants to have the money , then that is where all the corruption is born.
-
I will always go for football because we all know the influence and recognitions in which football has brought to us all across the world, this is all about friendliness, money will go and at the same time finished, but we are going to be left by the influence we had on each other through the friendship relationship we keep with each other, we can se how football today has made tremendous impact globally in bringing people together.

Exactly. This has been an argument for some times now and many believed that it is Money that unite the world but in real life situation it is football because whenever two strong teams played, we see people in different countries and ethnicity coming together to watch and support their club or team. Like in the case of World Cup, all the countries travel from their countries to the Stadiums to watch those games and those who didn't travel watched the games from home to it makes people to unite more. Well everyone has their reasons supporting money or football.
